Format : Vocal Score
As publishers and musicians ourselves we understand the financial restraints faced by many choir directors.So here's our contribution to the solution: several pieces for the price of one. Even if you use just one of thepieces in the set you are paying only the usual price of a single choral piece. If you use two you’re getting double value and if you use three four or more you’re quids in!Five Latin Motets - Set 1includes Ave verum corpus (Edward Elgar) In paradisum (Gabriel Faure) Haec dies (Colin Mawby) Laudate Dominum (Giuseppe Ottavioo Pitoni) and Panis angelicus (Cesar Franck) forunison 2-part and 3-part Voices.

This 17-minute choral sequence is scored for mixed chorus and organ, with optional percussion, and presents five of the Latin motets’which occur at the end of movements in MacMillan's St John Passion (2007): Astiterunt reges terr, Judas, mercator pessimus, Peccantem me quotidie, Crucifixus etiam pro nobis, Stabat Mater. In the last of these, MacMillan quotes Bach's Passion Chorale; Bach's original is therefore included as an optional opening movement in the sequence, to be sung in German or English. The sequence was selected by Nigel Perrin (Bath Camerata), who comments, “I chose these movements because they stand on their own and are effective as 'motets' with organ accompaniment. The order of movements forms a sort of chronological sequence. Although the keys do not relate I felt that this did not matter as each movement is completely different, creating its own sound-world and emotion. I have not added to the original settings; rather, I have removed material so that the choral construction can stand alone.†A Choral Sequence from the St John Passion represents a significant addition to the repertory of devotional works for Passiontide and is appropriate for church and concert performance alike.

The motets and choral pieces, composed with the distinctive features of the Madeleine organ in mind, enchant with their colourful, floating harmonies and convey a certain intimacy even with their ritualized Latin texts. These works are very well suited for performances by small vocal ensembles. A novelty is the inclusion of the double bass part (ad libitum) which does not appear consistently in the first editions but corresponds to the musical practice at the Madeleine.Numerous gems such as the “Cantique de Jean Racine†or the “Messe basse†are published in performing editions based on the musical text of the “Gabriel Faur – Å’uvres complètesâ€.

Initially for Female choir, Harmoniumand solo Violin, it was arranged by the authors in 1882 for Female choir and Chamber Orchestra. These scores, based on the two manuscripts, are the arranged version for Female choir and Piano by Odette Gartenlaub.

O Salutaris (motet) - Messager 5. Agnus Dei - Fauré This mass isreally soft, melodious and delicate, reminding sometimes of the motets by Gounod.
